Amidst growing criticism that she has been “using” her ex-husband Pawan Kalyan’s name for publicity, actress-turned-director Renu Desai has finally responded. Hitting back at her critics, Renu made it clear that she hardly took “support” of anyone for her debut production last year. Renu also reminded that she herself a “famous” model and actress before.

Renu Desai wrote on her social-networking page, “This is for the extra smart ppl who think I am using Pawan Kalyan’s name to get famous…I produced a hit film last year without any help or support from anyone, for which Kalyan garu is very proud of me… I have also been a famous model & actress before…so pls rest your over active brains and use that same energy for some social work… have a happy fun filled Sunday everyone…”
